AT&T Butterflies for Gymnastics Coverage

AT&T is promoting its wireless provision of NBC coverage of the Beijing Olympics with a 30 second television commercial featuring gymnast Nastia Liukin. We’re given a sense of Liukin’s emotional preparation for the vault, symbolised by the butterflies clinging to her torso. As she runs towards the vault the butterflies are left behind. “Don’t miss a butterfly”. Note the use of two colors throughout: black and orange.

The television of the crane is the one of the most clever,beautiful productions I have ever seen. I spent a great deal of time daily waiting for this commercial and was thrilled when I found GE had arranged for us all to place the ad in our library. I have been surfing for other fabulous items. Thank you
